Draw the $x-t$ graph for positive acceleration.

$A$ bullet is shot vertically downwards with an initial velocity of $100\,m/s$ from a certain height. Within $10\,s$,the bullet reaches the ground and instantaneously comes to rest due to a perfectly inelastic collision. The velocity-time curve for the total time $t = 20\,s$ will be: (Take $g = 10\,m/s^2$)

The velocity-time $(v-t)$ graph for a moving object is shown in the figure. The total displacement of the object during the time interval when there is non-zero acceleration and retardation is ........ $m$.

Given below are two statements:
Statement $I:$ Area under velocity-time graph gives the displacement of the body in a given time.
